Questions

How big is the Powercoin PCB?

It measures 19.3 × 24.1 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Powercoin use?

30 parts, built around the BQ51050BRHLR. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the Powercoin KiCad files?

From the byrantech/powercoin repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is powercoin/powercoin.kicad_pcb and its schematic powercoin/powercoin.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Powercoin design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the MIT licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
